HURLING, THE FASTEST GAME ON GRASS

     Today I`m gonna speak about a very typical irish sport, hurling. Hurling is a sport in which you have to score goals using a stick with axe shape called hurl and baseball balls called sliotar. Like any other irish sport is very rude and difficult because you can`t run with the ball in your hands and you can`t use any protection except of a helmet. The stick is used for a lot of things from taking the ball in the floor to pass the ball hitting it and normally you always can break the stick so you can have more than one. There are also two ways to score a goal, in an ordinary goal or in a goal with bars like in rugby.

I hope you enjoy it and let see if you try it (even if you don`t have sticks)
